The North Central Seattle Club existed from 1955 to 1989. District 11, which included the Yakima and Sunnyside area, merged into another district in 1993. Some active programs at the state level include a Speakers Bureau, Political Action Committee (PAC), the Young Careerist competition (founded in 1964 by BPW National President, Virginia Allen), and an annual conference
